==Aftermath==

===[[Liberty Tree]] Newspaper===

+

''"A state's witness under heavy guard by both the [[Liberty City Police Department (HD Universe)|LCPD]] and the [[FIB]] has been killed in the [[Westdyke Memorial Hospital]]. The witness [[Anthony Corrado]] had been expected to testify against suspected [[Alderney]] mob boss [[Jimmy Pegorino]]."''

+

+

''"A source close to the mob tells us that the witness's death is a big blow to the state's case against Pegorino, "Anthony was Jimmy P's personal bodyguard. If he took to the stand there wasn't no chance of Jimmy seeing daylight ever again. Now, they're screwed." The District Attorney, however, has other ideas, "We're working hard to put a case together against these lowlifes. Mr. Corrado was just one piece of the puzzle, albeit an important one." Corrado had been in the custody of the state for over a week. It is thought that the stress of betraying Pegorino and his cohorts was too much for him as he suffered a heart attack soon after agreeing to testify. Police are searching for the hitman and any possible links between the murder of their witness and Jimmy Pegorino.''"

*There's an accessible hospital room to the left of you before heading out to the lobby. Walk into there before entering the lobby. The automatic wanted level will still show up and wait for the cops to enter the room and shoot them. They will come in one by one. This makes leaving the hospital much easier.
